Asparagus Plants 'Gijnlim'

Product number: 831130.1
Origin: Europe
Latin: Asparagus officinalis

This asparagus variety is the cream of the crop for professional cultivation! Especially suitable for green cultivation because the tip of the stem remains nicely closed, which looks good as a harvested product. But this variety is versatile and is also widely used as a top choice for white cultivation! Very early harvest, high yield of thick stems. The crop is very uniform (even) and has strong foliage. Planting distance 160x40 cm. We supply the heaviest quality: 70/+, which are "crowns" of 70 g and heavier in A quality.
Tip: for the cultivation of blanched (white) asparagus, asparagus foil is very useful! See 845005

Denominations:
Latin: Asparagus officinalis
Dutch: Asperge
Also: Aspergeklauwen (Asparagus Crowns)
English: Asparagus

The planting distance is 40 cm. Between rows, 160 cm. For white cultivation, plant 22 cm deep and create a ridge 20 cm high; a crack in the ridge means: cut! Covering the ridge with black foil is easy and speeds up the harvest. For green cultivation, plant 15 cm deep, and during harvest, cut the growth shoots daily. You can harvest from the 2nd year (after planting) (it's fine to harvest a few stalks the following year), yielding approximately 50 kg per 100 m². After June 24th, harvesting stops to allow the plant to rest and grow.
